Chalcophaps is a genus of small doves, commonly called emerald doves, that are found in Indomalaya and Australasia.
The genus Chalcophaps was introduced by the English ornithologist John Gould in 1843.[1] The genus name combines the Ancient Greek khalkos meaning "bronze" and phaps meaning "pigeon".[2] The type species is the common emerald dove (Chalcophaps indica).[3]
